Green is definitely the big word these days. Recently, I wrote about energy-efficient chips. And looks like the companies that make drivers for backlights are focused on energy conservation as well.

While, screen image quality is a consideration when purchasing any PC, whether it's for business or consumer use, one such company is also focused on keeping the LED backlights energy efficient.

O2Micro International (NASDAQ: OIIM), based in George Town, Grand Cayman, sells the drivers for LED backlights found in notebook PCs. The company says its drivers offer energy efficiency and strong color saturation while still offering long life for the LEDs.

Perhaps we have another Silicon Valley for innovation in the Caribbean!
